8/10 Very good

Verblijf was goed, schone en mooie kamer en vriendelijke housekeeping. Klachten: weinig uitleg bij de receptie. Het zwembad gaat pas om 10 uur open en wij zwemmen graag voor het ontbijt. Er zijn geen ligbedjes bij het zwembad maar alleen hoge barkrukken. Dus zwemmen en wegwezen. Toen ik vroeg of ik een lage stoel mocht gebruiken ivm rugklachten waren deze alleen voor restaurantgasten en het antwoord was, nee. Heel raar want wij wilden graag koffie drinken, volgens mij bestel je dat in het restaurant en dan ben je een restaurantgast. ‘s Avonds is de rooftopbar ook open voor niet-gasten waardoor er geen plaats meer is voor ons. Van de de andere kant van het terras, waar nog wel de lage stoelen vrij waren, mochten wij ook geen gebruik maken om een drankje te drinken. Die waren voor de restaurantgasten. Niet-gasten staan zelfs voor het hotel in de rij voor een plekje bij de rooftopbar. Er is daar ook een dresscode wat ons niet was gezegd, wij werden gewoon weggekeken hoewel wij netjes gekleed waren. Dus er kan zeker wel wat verbeterd worden en sommige regels vind ik echt not done. Met name dat er geen plaats is voor de hotelgasten die voor de faciliteiten hebben betaald en wel voor mensen van buiten het hotel. Als wij dit hadden geweten, hadden wij zeker een ander hotel geboekt. Dit hotel is absoluut niet gastvrij voor hun eigen hotelgasten.

6/10 Good

The room was scrupulously clean and the bed was comfortable. Loved the location. Disappointed that the pool was basically unusable due to it being in the middle of the rooftop bar. In the evenings the lobby and elevators are packed with people accessing the terrace bar and restaurant which has beautiful views but is loud and uncomfortable with no shade.

Check in was as smooth and efficuent as expected...room was also a good size with a balcony overlooking the port. Rooms were well maintained, with fresh drinking water provided every day, although teabags were not replenished. Breakfast is excellent, with a great choice and quality - one of the main reasons we stayed here. Also right near the heart of the action in Malaga centre. Useful tip, if you are staying here and want to visit the rooftop bar, let the the staff know you are a guest so you don't have to join the public queue.

Vi var to vennepar der var på ferie. Vi oplevede : Venlige, hjælpsomme og imødekommende personaler. God morgenmad. God rengøring. Det eneste vi ikke var tilfredse med var, at vores seng var ligesom skæv, så den var højest i midten, så vi lå ikke så godt. Det skal siges, at vores venners seng ikke havde det problem. Poolområdet er ikke ret stort , men det lykkedes alligevel altid at få en solseng til os alle 4, når vi havde lyst til at slappe af. Beliggenheden for hotellet er super. Vi havde et dejligt ophold.

Our third stay at this hotel and it didn’t disappoint. Prime location next to the cathedral with a lovely rooftop pool with stunning views all over the city and port. After 7pm it becomes a rooftop bar. The restaurant is also worth a visit. The room was spotless with great amenities, water, tea and coffee etc. Highly recommend staying here to enjoy the sights of Malaga.
